the latitudes and longitudes are used to indicate the location and extension of a country or continent.longitudes influence the time of a place and divides the earth into various time zones whereas latitudes influence the duration of day and night and divide the earth into different time zones
Latitude and LongitudeLatitude is the lines that go from east to west, and longitude from north to south.
Equator and AxisThey
The imaginary lines that run around the earth in an east-west direction are lines of latitude or parallels.
They are drawn on the earth as imaginary lines that run from east to west.
latitude lines I think
Meridians
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that are parallel to the equator to fix a position on earth (along with longitude lines which are imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator)
The equator and the lines of longitude.
the equator ========= There are many imaginary lines around the Earth. In fact, there are an infinite number of imaginary lines. The two main types of imaginary lines are parallels of latitude (of which the Equator is one) and meridians of longitude.

Lines of longitude, or meridians.
Lines of latitude run east-west around the Earth and are parallel to the equator. The equator is at 0° latitude, with lines increasing to 90°N at the North Pole and 90°S at the South Pole. Lines of longitude run from the North Pole to the South Pole and are used to measure east-west distance. The Prime Meridian is at 0° longitude and runs through Greenwich, England.
The imaginary lines of longitude and latitude drawn on maps and globes of the Earth, is to aid navigation and accurately locating spots on the Earth's surface.
These lines are not actually on the planet, but are imaginary lines used to help us find our way around the curved surface of Earth
